Got Coopers Celebration Ale

had a drop last night and its been 12 months since I last had one, but I certainly don't remember the bitterness of the hops last time round. still a thoroughly enjoyable bevvy and probably the best coopers bevvy I have had.


ive also picked up 2 bottles of Coopers Artisan Reserve to try out over the weekend also

[bennymacca]

Celebration ale is easily the best coopers beer. Love it.

Artisan reserve is probably the worst, even including coopers clear. Just don't think the trademark coopers hop profile suits a pilsner style, they have never made a good one.

I will say their lager has improved a lot recently. Worth checking that out again. Brewer said it was because they now brew carlsberg there, it had helped their own lager a lot.

im glad I only picked up 2 bottles of the Artisan then!!!!

[bennymacca]

Maybe it's personal taste, but I didn't like it

[mighty_tiger_79]

well to be honest until last night in Dans I hadn't heard of it.


but my question is can you no longer by Grolsch in carton of swingtops at Dans??

[mighty_tiger_79]

im looking forward to my Ciders fermenting out

they've been going for a week now and still going!

will certainly be a buzz at 10% and will look at trying the forced carbonation with the sodastream machine (its gotta come in handy for something)

Protip - stop buying lagers

yeah sorry to say I reckon its very average beer the artisans, love the celebration and agree the lager has picked up
tried it again recently ..very good

could take a full carton back if u dont like the first (you may do we are all different) im sure they would swap

[Stumps]

sorry saw you said 2 bottles not 2 cartons. Thought you were gutsy going the 2 cartons without trying it

[mighty_tiger_79]

Nah I wouldn't buy 2 cartons without a taste test

I didnt see any of the grolsch swing tops in carton, nevermind was just thinking of it at the time to reuse bottles for Homebrew.

Lagers can be quite nice if done correctly

cant be a nice IPA or dark ale though.

[mighty_tiger_79]

I just had the first mouthful of the Artisan and it actually slides down quite nicely

[mighty_tiger_79]

Just had a jim beam triple aged black

Not bad
